I overlaid the National Climate Assessment Graph on the Forest Service graph, and it becomes clear exactly what they are doing. Like in the the heatwave graph, they picked the lowest point for their start date, so that they could show an upwards trend – and deceive the public.

They hid essentially all of the essential data, which shows that burn acreage is down 80% in the US over the past 90 years.

Burn acreage was very carefully tracked and reported during the 1930s. People split the atom and built the Golden Gate Bridge during the 1930s. It is not surprising that they also knew how to do the basic mathematics which climate scientists seem to be incapable of.
